POS Silver-spoonfed Austin Dillon wrecks Almirola for the win.
I retired from the Johns Manville asbestos pop tart factory in ‘59, and still never made the connection.—-Slumlord

That SOB! I despised him before but more now. He needs to get his ASAP. Don't like his grandfather either even if he is an NRA board member. He kept Mark Martin from winning a championship one year. Something to do with a part on his engine that everybody else had too.
I wanted Danica's old car to win. That would have been great!

Or anybody else in the race that wanted to win, the gloves were off in that race.

Lead, follow, or GTF out of the way.
Amirola did not have the speed. He should have chose option three.

Dillon caught Amirola, and as has been pointed out did exactly what what DE would have done.

Racing would be so much better with fewer rules, maintain the 3550 lb weight limit and the limit on cubic inches, and the valuable safety "stuff" it is very much needed, trash the restrictor plates and similar restrictions.
Tire size and width should be the only thing that should change from track to track, let the drivers and the crew chiefs figure out how to go fast and win races and not just the luck of the draw, or luck of the crash. This

Then STFU. The rest of your statement is superflous bullshit with no real bearing on this discussion other than to massage your own ego. Suckin' on my titties like you wanted me.

Who here wouldn't drive over somebody to achieve a life long goal when it was right in front of them? Like the movie "major league", the train is coming and you're on the track.

It’s bad when another man idolizes someone so much they wear their jersey, or even choose their race car number as their screen name.
That’s a real man..

I really dont understand how folks think that the racing back in the day so to speak was better then it is today. The level of competition today is so much higher and the introduction of stages or segments has added a degree of urgency that was missing. Just look at how hard they were racing yesterday at the ends of the segments!! Absolutely crazy hard racing and sure beats the hell out of just watching them ride. And the race was a sellout again this year. I think they've got it right!!
